Quote

You're never going to please everyone, and if you do, there's something wrong.

You cannot live to please everyone else. You have to edify, educate and fulfill your own dreams and destiny, and hope that whatever your art is that you're putting out there, if it's received, great, I respect you for receiving it. If it's not received, great, I respect you for not.

I don't do any art to please any people.

As an artist, you can never get what you want. What you do never approaches what you want it to be.

For the life of me, I'll never understand how you can be an artist but not want people to understand who you are as a person.

As an artist, you're always going to be yearning and wanting and never satisfied. I never feel like I've really achieved something.

You never know what an artist is going to create next.

If you try to please everybody, somebody's not going to like it.

If you want to be a legitimate artist, it's more important what you say no to.

What people don't understand is that how you are as an artist depends on how you are emotionally.
